None of the annotations of the PA sources are accurate, and indeed none of them are even complete. I refer to "Before and After the Flood&#8223;, "Bittersweet", "Paint the Daytime Black", Poet and the Players" etc. The quality of these tracks is better than any of the bootlegs as well (imho), as they are not derived from bootlegs.
